It's part of the joke. [img]smile.gif[/img] Even if "grammer" is "grammar," things still ring true.

My point of contention in the post is the spoiler thing. It didn't bother me so much when I played BG1, because I already played through the game before I knew Ironworks existed. But when I started playing BG2, I did so with as few spoilers as possible. It's irritating to me when someone wants to know about the +6 cheese in unholy den of evil and makes a subject heading like poor Poster #3. The point of a spoiler tag is a warning that you're giving information away and people who haven't masted the game (such as myself) should be cautious about reading further.

I liked it! I assume that Memnoch is the head Moderator in this story, but I hope that I am not the little squeaky one! Please tell me that I am more scary than that!

Well, in that case, LOL! It is funny. Spamhold?
Sorry, I didn't know you were complaining about spam, or spoiler warnings, I thought something had peeved you off at Ironworks as a whole! Sorry! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Pirengle, I agree all the way on the spoiling stuff! Some people really ruined BG2 for me in a couple ways by posting the MAJOR story info and plot twists long before I'd gotten there, without a 'spoiler' tag, so I always try to include tags when I post a potential spoiler.

Head Moderator: That's it, you've bust out of Spamhold and you're still spamming the streets. I've gotten the entire gang together to teach you a lesson.
*moderators cast Symbol: Ban*
Poster 1: That doesn't work on me, I have over 90 HP. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
*moderators cast Symbol: Silence*
*poster 1 casts vocalize, time stop, followed by a RRR/LR/ADHW blast*
Head Moderator: I'm getting out of here!

Pit Fiend: I'm a pit fiend. Wanna buy a buriza for 6 SoJs?
Poster 1: Forget it. In Spamhold, a Glabrezu offered me a perfect clean for 4.
Pit Fiend: But you must buy mine for 6!
Poster 1: Why?
Pit Fiend: Because that makes me fiendish.
